[Good info, from another site]
Tired of going through countless prompts when all you want to do is ask a simple question or just pay your bill? Did you know there was a site devoted to getting you through to an operator as quickly as possible?
Phone automation for the most part truly sucks. There are times though when it's useful and can be a quite convenient service. But when you need to speak to a human, you just gottah speak to a human. My partner Adam put me on to a site called, 'Dial A Human' where there's a healthy list of popular businesses, their real numbers and dialing short cuts to be directed away from the automated prompts and forwarded directly to a live operator. The numbers are of course listed alphabetically and you can even send in a number as well if you do not see it listed.
